Roman Missal- Question and Answer Source: “A Guide to the New Translation of The Mass” by Edward Sri

Why do we need a new translation? When the Second Vatican Council allowed for “a more extended use of the mother tongue within the Mass” (Sacrosanctum Concilium, no. 53), various

groups worked quickly to develop an official English translation to be used for the first time in worship, and a fukll English missal was publishes in 1973. The approach to translation used at that time (known as “dynamic equivalence”) aimed at communicating the general meaning of the Latin text of the Mass,

rather than providing a literal, or word-for-word, translation.

After forty years of celebrating Mass in English, the Church has come to see certain areas where the English text could be improved. Some have noted that, when the Latin text was paraphrased, a number of rich spiritual metaphors and images were lost. Important theological concepts were not always clear, and

several biblical allusions did not shine out as noticeably as they could.

In 2001, the Vatican called for a more precise translation that gives Catholics a better sense of the richness of the Latin text– a translation that would be

“without omissions or additions in terms of their context, without paraphrases or glosses” (Liturgiam Authenticam, no. 20). Following this approach, the new

translation of the Mass preserves more fully the theological tradition

Stations of the Cross Stations are every Friday

of Lent following the

5:30pm Mass.

DID YOU KNOW? Road to Priesthood Involves a Rigorous Formation Process Seminary formation involves

much more than academic study. Prior to ordination, a candidate for priesthood goes through a

lengthy evaluation period, including an internship during which he lives in a rectory and works with priests, staff and

parishioners. During this time, the candidate is judged as to his suitability to be a priest. No one

is ordained unless the staff of St. John’s Seminary, including the lay faculty and formation advisers, concludes that the candidate has attained an

emotional, psychological and sexual maturity appropriate for

his age and for the celibate life of a priest. For more information, please visit www.archdiocese.la and click on the “Vocations” tab. For particular help, you may call

Assistance Ministry at 213 637 7650.

Cómo Reportar Contenido Inadecuado o Ilegal en el Internet Una de las razones principales que los niños no divulgan el contenido inadecuado que

encuentran en el internet es por miedo al castigo de los padres. Si les deja saber que no es culpa de ellos si atraviesan por un sitio del internet inapropiado, estarán más dispuestos a

venir a usted cuando esto pase. Si sus hijos les muestran un sitio del internet que contiene materia ilegal, tales como imágenes pornográficas de niños, póngase en contacto

con su proveedor de servicios de Internet y la CyberTipline en www.cybertipline.com. Para obtener ayuda, llame a la Oficina del Ministerio de Ayuda al 213 637 7650.
